Symptoms
- The Drag and Drop plugin side bar has never appeared in JIRA despite the plugin being bundled with JIRA or being installed by the administrator.
- The version currently installed is 3.2.5 or older.
Or
- After upgrading the Drag and Drop Attachment Plugin to Version 3.2.5 the drop zone area, which used to be on the right hand side in the detail issue view, is gone.

Cause
The required dark feature is not enabled.
